Ships That Don't Come In - Joe Diffie[00:00:01]
I could tell he'd had a tough life[00:00:16]
By the way he sat and stared[00:00:20]
And me I'd come to push and shove[00:00:25]
So I pulled up a chair[00:00:28]
We talked of roads untraveled[00:00:32]
We talked of love untrue[00:00:36]
Of strings that come unraveled[00:00:40]
We were kings and kindred fools[00:00:44]
And just when I'd hit bottom[00:00:49]
That old man raised his glass[00:00:53]
And said at least we had our chances[00:00:56]
There's those who never have[00:01:01]
So here's to all the soldiers[00:01:05]
Who have ever died in vain[00:01:09]
The insane locked up in themselves[00:01:13]
The homeless down on Main[00:01:17]
To those who stand on empty shores[00:01:21]
And spit against the wind[00:01:25]
And those who wait forever[00:01:29]
For ships that don't come in[00:01:33]
He said it's only life's illusions[00:01:43]
That bring us to this bar[00:01:47]
To pick up these old crutches[00:01:51]
And compare each other's scars[00:01:55]
'Cause the things we're calling heartache[00:01:59]
Hell they're hardly worth our time[00:02:04]
We bitch about a dollar[00:02:08]
When there's those without a dime[00:02:11]
And as he ordered one last round[00:02:15]
He said I guess we can't complain[00:02:19]
God made life a gamble[00:02:24]
And we're still in the game[00:02:28]
So here's to all the soldiers[00:02:32]
Who have ever died in vain[00:02:36]
The insane locked up in themselves[00:02:40]
The homeless down on Main[00:02:44]
To those who stand on empty shores[00:02:48]
And spit against the wind[00:02:52]
And those who wait forever[00:02:56]
For ships that don't come in[00:03:00]
And those who wait forever[00:03:06]
For ships that don't come in[00:03:12]
